 | | Can Altruism Save Humans From Becoming Extinct? | | by Rana Sinha, Aug 24, 2008 | | In every human society, altruism, a selfless concern for the welfare of others, is considered a noble virtue. Being altruistic and helping others has great implications for the human race. As in the past, altruism will affect the very survival of the human race. As a species, can we choose to go the selfish Neanderthal way or the more altruistic Cro-Magnon way? | | Comments(5) Liked It: 9 |

 | | Our Society and Its Manko | | by dood2020, Aug 19, 2008 | | Ever had a cupboard filled with things you don't need, will never need, had never needed, yet bought it? A part of our materialistic mentality is the source of that little problem, and it is also shoved into our faces by mass commercialism. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 1 |

 | | Agriculture in France | | by balisunset, Aug 14, 2008 | | French agriculture is by far the most important in Europe. A radical policy of modernization was implemented from the 1950s, later associated with Europe’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). The strategy has been successful, but its consequences include a series of social problems such as regional desertification, the aging of farming communities and the disappearance of debt-ridden small farms, together with a deterioration of the rural environment. Recent reforms of the CAP and the gradual opening of agricultural markets to international competition signal the ultimate failure of the ‘modern family farm’ model which was at the root of the policy consensus since the 1950s. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 0 |
